  • E343: The Day the Music Died (part IV)
    Sep 18 2026
    The plane had crashed. Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and the Big Bopper had been laid to rest. But the story of The Day the Music Died is far from over. In the fourth and final part of our series, we look at everything that came after February 1959: the investigation into the crash, the questions that lingered, the families and loved ones left behind, and the strange rumors and theories that started to spread around one of the most infamous tragedies in music history.

    Sep 11 2026
    This week Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and the Big Bopper finally come together for the Winter Dance Party...the infamous tour that was badly planned, brutally cold, and exhausting almost from the moment it began. We follow them as the ping-pong across the frozen Midwest in a bus that could barely keep them warm, through breakdowns, illness, and a schedule that made very little geographical sense....and that makes Johanna kind of stabby!
